Where are my web-site graphics and images?

Hi there,

Strange one.

When I publish and access my web-site from the production server all the images/graphics, formatting and lay-out is missing.

Works fine on Visual Studio WD Express. Snap shot from the browser window below.... Yes, all the required graphics are in the respective folders off INetPub. The files for this site were copied, lock stock and barrel to the production server.

Visiting one of the images (http://demo.truthstone.com/App_Themes/White/Images/button-create.gif
) in your demo, displays:

Forbidden: Read access is denied

So you may want to check the permissions on the webserver.

Hi David,

Forgive the dumb questions, but where do I set folder/file permissions? i.e. do I need to do this file by file or folder by folder or for the whole site?

For whom do I need to set the permissions? (At this stage there are administrators and users set up on the server).

What values do I need to set? At present the permissions I can see by right clicking on the folder are set to "read" access.

Hi!

Thanks for asking! I'm a member of the ASP.NET team, and was just popping over here to see what was going on. The best place to ask ASP.NET questions is over on the ASP.NET forums at http://www.asp.net/welcome.aspx?tabindex=1&tabid=39

As David said, you need to ensure that the files are not locked down. To do this, check the permissions (using Explorer) to make sure ASPNET and/or Network Service has read access to those files.

HTH,

PEte
